VICTORIA — The detention of a top Huawei executive in Canada has derailed British Columbia's trade mission to China. The decision follows the arrest of Huawei Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou, who was detained while changing flights last week in Vancouver. Trade Minister Bruce Ralston declined an interview request Sunday and Global Affairs Canada did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The United States is seeking to have Meng extradited on allegations that she tried to evade American trade sanctions on Iran. Le called the United States to "immediately correct its wrong actions" and said it would take further steps based on Washington's response.
